Any suggestions as to why my 11year old son is.....?
Answers:
First off, thats good that you realize that you shouldn't get angry with this behavior. I've seen it too many times that parents will get mad at their child for wetting the bed.
Moving along, well it sounds that your problem might just be insignificant. Yes, he is wetting again after a dry year, so he could just be falling into a relapse. Just relax and do the same things you did when he was wetting before.
-You might want to see a doctor. I don't want to scare you but it is a good little precaution to take. "Better safe than sorry" I say.
-Try disposable underpants at night, if you haven't already done so. As much as he may not like it, they help keep the mattress and sheets dry.
-You might also want to try out some bladder exercises. Have him drink three large glasses of water and hold it as long as he can. And when he does use the restroom, make sure he gets rid of all the fluids as best as he can. Do this twice every day and these exercises should last for about a week and a half to three weeks. If you see improvement in his...for lack of a better word, performance. However, if he begins to wet more (frequently and quantitatively), stop the exercises immediately and get him on his regular diet.
I hope I could be of some help.
Maybe he is having other problems outside of home like at school or with friends. That can often lead to problems like bedwetting.
